In a significant development, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has assured Japan’s Consul General in Mumbai Fukahori Yasukata of speeding up infrastructure projects like the bullet train, which has been funded by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). The deputy chief minister gave this assurance during his meeting with Yasukata and other Japanese officials on July 20, 2022.
Under the bullet train project, the state government is looking to start trains on a high-speed rail corridor at a speed of 320 kmph. The train will cover the distance of 508 stations and will halt at 12 stations. The bullet train will also reduce the travel time from the current six hours to three hours.
